1 ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS The Essential Choice FISH OILS EPA DHA GLA FLAXSEED OIL *This statement has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
2 Healthy Fats. Essential for Health. Exceptional Quality. In a nutshell, these are the benefits of Solgar s extensive selection of essential fatty acid (EFA) supplements. With formulas tailored to everyone s preferences, you ll find the right supplement to complement your eating habits, health, and lifestyle. Who Should Consider Taking EFAs? Those who want to enhance the health of the heart and overall cardiovascular system* Those who want to naturally and positively support immune health*
3 What Are Essential Fatty Acids? EFAs are the healthy dietary fats. Technically known as fatty acids, the omega-3s and omega-6s have long been recognized as the heart-healthy polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs).* They play crucial roles in the entire cardiovascular system, as well as in immunity.* They are nutritionally essential because our bodies cannot make them and must be obtained from dietary sources. For a variety of reasons, many people do not obtain adequate amounts of high-quality omega-3s or omega-6s. The widespread consumption of processed foods e.g., fast foods and other convenience foods has upset the traditional dietary balance of omega-3s and omega-6s. Some researchers estimate that low-quality omega-6s now dominate omega-3s by more than a 16-to-1 ratio in the contemporary diet. 1 Furthermore, trans fats, found in hydrogenated oils, interfere with how the body normally uses omega-3s and omega-6s. For metabolic reasons, the omega-3s suffer the most and supplementation is often justified. You can help restore a more optimal balance of EFAs by regularly eating cold-water fish or taking fish oil supplements. Indeed, the American Heart Association recommends diets rich in omega-3 PUFAs and that supplementation with omega-3 fish oils can be an option for certain individuals. 2
4 The Omega-3 Family Scientific and medical research on omega-3s has been exhaustive, with many medical and scientific studies published on them in just the past 15 years. You can think of the omega-3 family as a series of steppingstones, with one compound serving as the precursor for the next. The parent molecule, alpha-linolenic acid, functions as the fundamental source of much more potent omega-3s. Alpha-linolenic acid is found in flaxseed oil. Most people do not efficiently convert alpha-linolenic acid to the more biologically active members of the omega-3s, while others want their omega-3s to work faster. For these people, fish oil supplements may be the ideal solution. EPA and DHA leapfrog several metabolic steps, so they quickly yield health benefits.* EPA forms the hormone-like prostaglandin 3 series of compounds, which have circulatory and other heart-healthy benefits.* Meanwhile, the body converts DHA to resolvins and protectins, which also have beneficial properties.* 3 Fish oils contain the most biologically active omega-3s, specifically eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and certain species of algae provide a rich source of vegetarian DHA.
5 Omega-3 Science With well-documented and multifaceted effects on health, the omega-3s are true nutritional multitaskers.* Omega-3s and Cardiovascular Health In a scientific position paper, the American Heart Association highlighted several ways omega-3 fish oils may support heart health.* Through their role as precursors to prostaglandins and thromboxanes, the omega-3s support circulation, help regulate normal heart rhythm, and help maintain triglyceride levels already within a normal range.* 2,4,5 Omega-3s and Prostaglandins EPA serves as a precursor to prostaglandin E3, a natural substance that reduces the activity of arachidonic acid and prostaglandin E2.* 6 In addition, both EPA and DHA are building blocks of protectins and resolvins, two other families of natural modulating compounds. Omega-3s and Aging In certain individuals, EPA and DHA may help maintain the length of telomeres, the protective tips of chromosomes.* Scientists believe that telomere length is a marker of biological aging. 7
6 Omega-6 Science The omega-6 fats serve as the building blocks of prostaglandins. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) functions as the arbiter of the omega-6 prostaglandin E1. The body converts GLA to dihomogamma-linolenic acid, the key building block of prostaglandin E1. GLA GLA and its byproducts promote healthy levels of immune factors, such as interleukin-1 beta and some types of T cells.*8-10 As a building block of prostaglandin E1, it may help support joints.*11-13 EFA Complementary Effects No nutrient functions in isolation, and EPA, DHA, and GLA have complementary effects. They help regulate the body s immune system and support the activity of prostaglandins E1 and E3.*
